This is nothing new for the auto industry. Most automakers do not have a complete website section for a new car until 3-6 months after release.

Recently, Jeep's new wrangler website was in "beta" until after the vehicle was on dealer lots for 3 months. VW didn't add the 4-door GTI to their web site until this week, The car was on dealer lots in August.

Does the 07 G35 SEDAN have the TRUE DUAL EXHAUST? Any pictures of the underside yet?

Also, someone took a picture of the underside of the 07 at the OC autoshow and it did not show a true dual exhaust. Someone also looked under an 07 parked in the backlot of a car dealership in hawaii and he also said no dual.

Ahh if somone in TN has one with dealer plates it mean the car isnt for sale yet! Probably in another 2-3 weeks!! GAY!

When the new Altima's were out there were a couple of them with dealer plates running around town but they were not on sale yet.

That red one look so hot!

So what is true dual exhaust anyway? Even that pick above isn't true dual in my eyes. They still connect in the middle. or is the definition that they have separate headers and tail pipes and can meet in the middle whether that spot be a muffler or double-pipe?

hmmmm....

I heard Nissan has the 07, but as far as i know they aren't letting anyone else in to the sand box to play yet.

Weird that their still is no official stuff on the '07s... either on Edmunds or the Nissan Z section of their webpage.

For an '07... it's a little late.

That would be me... I say again, NO TRUE DUAL EXHAUST ON THE 2007 NISSAN 350Z!!! IT IS THE SAME SETUP AS OLDER MODELS!!!

Not like it matters though... who keeps it stock anyways?

I just went to my local dealership. They said they wouldn't be getting any 07 Z's until late March - early April. They have 4 06's in stock... He said I could order one now, but would take up to 12 weeks.

The specs are now on nissannews.com and say the same thing. No lower final drive!

Good so does this mean 5.0 0-60 or maybe less?

I can't find a single dyno of the new engine even though the g35 sedan has been out like 2 months! wtf!

guys think about this the new g35 sedan with HR was tested by Road and Track and here are the number

3806 lbs
5.4 0-60
13.5 1/4 at 102mph
90 degree day


Tell me how that is done with 306 hp and 268 tq pushing 3806 lbs as tested. I think nissan is under rating all their numbers for the 07 line. I dont think the 3.69 final drive is going to make this much of a differance. So I would bet the new Z will be faster than current 06 by more than .2
